Factory for powder metallurgy superalloy turbine disks is being set up in Jiangsu
Annual production rate is 3000
Is it know for which engine this factory is destined, or is it for the engine industry as a whole?

Any news on how close to production release the so-called new generation engines are?Came across the news of some developing "new generation engine" in Chinese military forum yesterday.One of them reveals to have the name WS-19"Huangshan" ,and it's described comparable with EJ-200/EJ-2x0 variants.
They are aready developing the WS-13, so why start a project for a EJ-200 class engine ?

It was taken down from the flying test bed couple months ago. All kind of rumor spreading on the net.
One guy said the shaft was broken.
So depending how recent this photo is , It show the prototype is back on testing
